When Leo hears Fiona’s words, he is stunned at first, then he calms down quickly. “I remember what you said. We played all day today. You must be exhausted. Go back and have a rest, will you?”
Leo’s voice is low and seductive. Fiona is intoxicated.
She blushes and leans against Leo and nods. Finally she kisses Leo on the cheek and whispers in his ear, “Leo, I’ll wait for you.”
With that, Fiona takes a look at Leo. She looks charming.
Leo smiles like he is fascinated by Fiona or not. He puts his arm around Fiona's waist and takes her to the elevator door and says, “go back.”
“OK.” Fiona smiles happily and stands in the elevator waving to Leo.
If there is such a handsome and rich man for you, every woman is easy to fall, including Fiona. They only spend a day together, but she finds that she has fallen in love with the man named Leo.
At the moment when the elevator finally closes, Leo’s smile suddenly cools down, and he turns away without expression.
As he passes Claire’s door, he stops and looks at the closed room. His eyes are deep and he is thinking about something.
He stands for a long time. He turns to face Claire’s door and reaches out to knock, but when his hand reaches into the air he suddenly puts it down.
Leo puts his hand back in his pocket and walks back to his room.
...
After Claire says that to Leo, she raises her chin and walks proudly back to her room. She clenches her fist throughout the process, indicating that she has been holding back her anger.
It is not until the door is closed that Claire’s disguise is completely removed. She leans weakly against the door and slowly slips to the ground.
Claire looks ahead and gives a wry smile. Her eyes are astringent and her heart seems to be heavily pressed by a stone, so that she can not breathe at all.
She is so upset, but she can’t cry.
Seeing Leo looking at Fiona seriously and they are close together, she is inexplicably upset and a little embarrassed.
Is Leo still the kind of person who seduces women at will after losing his memory?
He was nice to her a few days ago and kissed her and hugged her, but now he does it to another woman.
She thought he was better the other day. She didn’t expect it to be her illusion. Leo is still Leo. He’s still that crazy bastard.
She can’t hope for Leo. Look, she’s embarrassed now. She deserves to be teased by him.
Claire is leaning against the door, complaining. She sits on the ground with her legs together and her knees in her arms. She puts her chin on her knee and mentally educates herself.
At the moment, Leo is standing outside the door. At last, both of them stay in their rooms and spend the night in silence.
The next day, Claire wakes up quickly. Hearing someone knock on her door, Claire opens the door without thinking.
When she sees Leo outside the door, she wants to close the door.

The readers' comments on the novel: Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad
The storyline could have been better -- organization and cohesion of episodes could stand improvement, ending could have been more definitive resolving the many conflicts between the protagonists. Of course, the despicable treatment of Leo towards Claire initially, e.g., selling her off in an auction and giving her to the madam of the club as princess is inhuman and a violation to the wife's rights and honor. I was wondering why she did not leave after these maltreatments. Oh, well, the conclusion [if the narrative ends in Chapter 488] is quite disappointing and anti-climactic. Thank you just the same....
The end of the story is wanting, considering how the episodes build up to conflict after conflict and concluding in yet another conflict. But then c'est la vie! Thank you....
